Hello All,

By way of introduction, my name is Jerome Preisler and I am a professional author (Tom Clancy's Power Plays, All Hands Down, etc.) who is presently under contract with a major U.S. publisher for a history book that largely concerns the U-864. I am looking to gather as much information as possible about the submarine and, as importantly, her crewmen and their families. I want to get this story RIGHT and it is an understatement to say that whatever help/pointers/leads the members of this forum might provide would be more than welcome!

Please don't hesitate to respond here in this forum, or email me at either of the addresses below:

j.preisler@myfairpoint.net

preisler@jeromepreisler.com

Thanks, Jerome
